27 BCHL Alumni on NHL Opening Night Rosters:

The National Hockey League published each team’s opening day roster on its website yesterday and there are 27 former BCHL players featured.

There have already been some adjustments to these rosters (like Pittsburgh called up former Penticton forward Beau Bennett from the minors), but because they were official for opening day yesterday, it’s what I’m going with for the purposes of this post.In all, 21 of the NHL’s 30 teams have a former BCHLer on their roster. With three, the Vancouver Canucks, Ottawa Senators, and Dallas Stars have the most former BCHLers on their rosters.I’ve noted each BCHL alumni on the rosters in bold below. As always, any corrections, comments, etc. are encouraged in the comments section.
